We claim: 
     
       1. Cooling appliance, comprising a housing having an opening formed therein, at least one door for sealing said opening, at least one first bearing part fixed on said housing in vicinity of said opening, at least one second bearing part being movably disposed on and at least partially axially insertible into said first bearing part from above, at least one supporting tray disposed in said housing and having a given region being disposed on said at least one second bearing part, said supporting tray having a curved portion opposite said given region for permitting said tray to be swung from a rest position to a position at least partly swung out of said housing when said door is open, a shaped damping element disposed on one of said bearing parts for damping the impact of said tray when swung into said rest position, and a shaped retaining element disposed on the other of said bearing parts for catching said damping element and axially interlocking said bearing parts when said tray is swung into said rest position. 
     
     
       2. Cooling appliance according to claim 1, wherein said damping element is in the form of a burr disposed on said first bearing part and said retaining element is in the form of a resilient elastic synthetic formed part being disposed on said second bearing part and being lockable on said burr with a substantially C-shaped opening formed in said retaining element.
